Have you tried applying in Syria? I gather there may be a vacancy coming up shortly there.

Lots of vacancies in the Middle East for Opticians as Myopia is prevalent!

Try the ME Job Opportunities Forum as not everyone on here is wants to discuss work related issues, especially with a complete newbie.

In the three years I've been here I have only come across 1 British healthcare professional (a dentist)--all others were either Arabs or Indians, who I imagine would both expect and accept considerably lower salaries than you would: that will be your challenge.

I know that there are British healthcare professionals here, but I believe they're in niche sectors.

ok..had a suspicion that would be the case.... how straight forward is it to set up an opticians practice in abu dhabi...we have our own practice here in the uk and are well familiar with governmemt health departments...would it work setting up in the free zones?..how would it work if not sponsored?
